      Fuck the media. They should have been reporting on project 2025 nonstop during the election. Somehow it’s not considered “objective” reporting to say when a political party are objectively fascists who intend to strip away people’s rights

    He’s not kidding. He’s building a fucking ballroom, a project that will go past 2029. He has no intention of ever leaving office. He won’t leave unless physically forced to. Fuck you if you think the government will make him leave just because the law says they will

      I think a cardiovascular event will sort it out eventually. Let’s hope it happens sooner rather than later.

          Probably not, but at least the personality cult will after not long, and until that It’s going to be funny as shit seeing C.F. Vance flailing around trying to take it over.

            It amazes me that Trump has such a cult, at least with Hitler he was famed for his speeches being mesmerizing in a vaguely coherent fashion while appealing to the wildly racist and anti Semitic base, Trump just comes across as a rambling, racist Grandpa Simpson if he had a grade four concussion.

    No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.

      Laws without enforcement are just words on a piece of paper.

      Not to mention, amendments have been repealed before. And if anybody thinks that Trump will do it through official channels, assuming he bothers, I have a bridge to sell them.

      You see, they forgot to define “Term”. Just because there’s an election doesn’t mean it’s a term. It really means you get a second chance if you’re voted out, but not a third. Unless…

      It says they can’t be elected to office. What about when he cancels elections and extends his existing term indefinitely?

        Have you seen the instructions for eating an elephant?

    You know what? I think its time to set up an seperate national assembly of some sort to address the actual problems of the people. Let’s just pat the rich on the head, let Congress go sniff tRump’s farts, then go govern the addressing of actual problems (the unaffordablility of food, the lack of healthcare to the masses, global heating, AI causing mass unemployment, etc.). Our government clearly refuses to address the actual problems of the masses, so lets collectively assemble a seperate but equal governing body to address them ourselves.
